...Holy Symbol!" In menacing tones General Göring then read out three new decree laws. The first ended the clumsy arrangement under which the German tricolor and the Nazi swastika have been flown together as national flags. Henceforth Germany's sole flag is the swastika. "It is the anti-Jewish symbol of the world!" thundered General Göring amid deafening cheers. "A soldier from the front lines, Adolf Hitler, pulled us out of the dirt and brought us back to honor. . . . The swastika has become for us a holy symbol!" This, Germans considered, completely answered a Jewish judge in Manhattan...
...monarch quail last week faced Denmark's tall, saturnine King Christian X. The great, eight-sided courtyard of Amalienborg Palace was jam-packed with strapping, irate Danish farmers in the grip of a grievance.

They saw the in visible hand of Jewry in a proposal by a New York City alderman to forbid public showing of the swastika. To Germans, however, it was thrilling to read of the prompt, virile reaction of hyphenated German-Americans in New York to Mayor LaGuardia. "We are prepared to meet violence with violence!" roared the Fuhrer of the Friends of New Germany in South Brooklyn. Karl Nicolay. With apple-cheeked youths uniformed...
...However, the swastika wreath is not an insult to the Harvard Chapel alone, it is a brazen and sneering affront to the entire University, for the wreath is an emblem of a regime which has terrorized the students and professors of Germany, and which has reduced the splendid German national culture to an incoherent barbarism. That the friends and representatives of the Hitler government should dare to lay this swastika wreath in the name of peace, at the precise moment when Hitler, throwing aside all pretense, is arming his enslaved nation to the teeth, is a glaring example...
